Many Building Associations work
on the plan Of allowing all shares
redeemed or unredeemed-to par
ticipate in the profits; this calcula-
ton is made from the standpoint Of
those which allow redeemed or hyp0-
thecated shares, no participation in
profits. OF the two respective insti-
tutions each offers some advantages
that the other does not. For in-
stance, in the Building Association
the compelling man to pay his
dues, has a salutary effect in max
ing him regulate his expenses so IS
to meet his obligations. Yet as an
offset to this, and by way Of disad-
vantage, should a man, whose IN.
come is dependent on his daily labor
fall sick and be in default for a
short time he is foreclosed, and
loses what little he has made. Then
for default in payment for week
he is fined and this goes to swell the
sum total of the cost of his property
at the same time lessening his abil
ity to pay; or if he should have a
round sum to pay in before matur-
ity of his obligation to the associa-
ton Except it be enough to entire
ly cancel his obligations) he receives
credit for it only as it would become
due in regular course. A Savings
Bank will, however, receive depos.
its in any amount, at any time,
credit them as received, and pay in
terest from date of deposit. The
lack of the compulsory feature OF
deposit, compelling the outstanding
of resources is disadvantage both
against the Savings Bank and the
borrower-for unless compelled to
save, man is very prone to spend
more than he should. Again re-
ferring to the occasion of sickness
if the purchase is made by borrow
ing directly for payment at stated
time, the fund in the Savings Bank
can be utilized for necessary cxpen'
ses incurred during such sickness
whereas the money in the Other
case belonging Gas it does) to the
Building Associciation could not bt
touched for necessary sustenance
As said in the beginning OF this ar
ticle, we regard both institutions o.
incalculable benefit, but by analysiI
we must conclude if man desires
to make a purchase and has any GER
tain small income the Savings Banl
presents the better means.

Railroad Rumble.

We are informed that the grading
from the Smith county line to Phillips
burg is nearly completed.
A railroad man who is presumed to
know, says the depot building to be
erected here, is to be 200 feet in length.
That indicates that Phitlipsburg IS to be
an important point on the Rock Island.
To W. C. Calhoun, Of this city was
awarded the contract for the building
of the first six stalls of the Round
House to be erected at this place. The
building when finished will contain Is
stalls, but only six are contracted for
now. Mr.. Calhoun viii begin the work
Immediately.
The Rock Island Company are max
ing arrangements to construct a large
basin or pond on their grounds north
of town. A draw is to be damned up
which when filed with water will con-
tain about So acres. This water is OF
course for use in the shops, to fill loco
motive boilers and for other purposes
about the Railroads works.

The ooming County Fair.

Perhaps every reader Of the HERALD
by this time knows that the Phillips
County Fair takes place at Phillipsburg
on September 9th, 26th, 29th and 50th.
The total amount of premiums offered
is 81, 500. This county has had eight
annual fairs, but it is designed By the
management to make this, the ninth
one, the best that has ever been held.
The premiums offered on cattle, horses
and other live stock are very generous
as we'll as on farm products We can
not of course in one short newspaper
article publish the list of premiums Of
fered for it is quite extended. 1t is to
be hoped that every farmer or other
person, who thinks there is any prOba-
biIty that he may attend the Fair will
apply to j S. Barnes, Secretary for
a pamphlet containing the full list of
premiums offered and other useful in
formation about the coming exhibition.
The management is sparing no pains
to make the fair a grand success. They
are erecting the necessary stock sheds
and putting the grounds in good shape.
Again, the HERALD calls on all its
readers IN Phillips county to make
their arrangements to attend the Fair
Bring some stock, or product of the
farm or of the household, to exhibit.
Let Phillips county show to the world
that we deserve the reputation we have
of being about the best county in the
State. If you have nothing to exhibit
come to the fair anyway, and have a
good time

A Few words to Old Settlers.

As the time approaches when farm
ers and others decide on what neswpa-
per they will take the coming year, we
wish to speak few words about the
PhiIhpsburg HERALD. This paper Is
emphatically an ,'old settler, - having
been established here ten years ago
One of the proprietOrs has been con-
nected with the HERALD for about nine
years, and those years have been quite
eVentful ones. All persons whether
newspaper men, business men or farm
ers who have been here ten years have
seen many ups and downs. Since his
connection with this paper Phillips
county has had grasshoppers, drouth,
hail-storms and other discouraglng ex-
periences. Hundreds got disheartened
and went back east TO their wife's re-
latiOnE. Some stuck right here. Our
partner is one of that number. He and
the old HERALD stood by the early set
tiers and they stood by the HERALD.
In years gone by, sometimes the HER
AID made its prOprietors money and
sometimes lost them money. Having
gone through all the hard times and
good times, it is to-day one of the sub
stantial, permanent institutions of Phil
lips county. It has the latest improved
Power Press, and other machinery, and
is the most thoroughly equipped print
ing Offices in northwestern Kansas.
This is due mainly to the skill, energy,
and pluck of its owners and the hosts
of old settlers who have been steadfast
friends of the HERALD during all those
years mentioned. While other and
newer newspapers are presenting their
claims for patronage, we would present
the old, staunch, solid HERALD. Re-
member that during all those ten years
the HERALD was the only paper in
Philhpsburg, and though 1t had a mo-
nOpOly of the business, it charged but
about haif price for advertising, and
sent the paper in many instances year
after year to subscribers on credit. In
making up the list of papers you will
take next year, remember your old
tried and true friend the Phillipsburg
] HERALD.

FIre-Ciay, Potters-Clay and Brick
CLAY Of Superior Quality and
in large Quantities near
PhfIffnsI,77V-o
Philiipsburg.

HERALD readers viii remember that
not long ago we made mention Of the
fact that Jacob Klose. residing near
Phillipsburg, had on his farm bank
Of clay which we believed was fire clay
and another bank Potters clay, and an
other good brick clay. It has already
been proven that the brick clay is of
the finest quality as the Cont House
and the Philips County Bank building
were constructed Of this clay, and there
/ is every reason to believe that it is of
as fine a quality as the clay from which
the celebrated Milwaukee brick is man
ufactured. The brick made from this
material are of a bright color and re-
semble the Milwaukee brick very close
ly. As to the fire clay and Pottars
clays Mr., Klose informs the HERALD
that he has sent specimens OF it to com
petent experts in such matters. and
they have decided that the clay is a
good quality of the class named. Phil
lipsburg is fortunate in thus having
within a half mile of her city limits, IN
large quantities. these magnificent
mines of valuable clay.
